Disney-Pixar Has Created a Masterpiece in Wall-E

July 2nd, 2008 Filed under: Uncategorized — Movie Critic

The wait is over! Disney Pixar’s latest movie Wall-e is now in movie theaters. The Wall-e movie promises to be another great Disney Pixar hit. The storyline is that humans have messed up the earth so much they have to leave the planet and wait for the robots to clean it up. But the robots all break down. Except for Wall-e. (Waste Allocation Load Lifter — Earth-Class).

The Wall-E character seems almost child-like. Wall-E spends all day compacting trash, and in the mean time he discovers treasures which he keeps in his Playmate cooler, for transfer to his collection shelf inside his “home”.

Wall-E is all alone on Earth (except for his companion cockroach) until Eve arrives. She was sent by the humans to find out whether or not it is safe for them to return to the Earth.

Wall-E is a love story like nothing that we have seen before. The relationship between Eve and Wall-E seems very real, even if they are both robots. The pre release reviews have all been very positive. Although Wall-E uses very little dialogue in the first half of the movie, it manages to touch the heart of the audience.

Wall-E falls in love with Eve. Her full name is Extra Terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator. She is a sleek, sophisticated probe droid who is far more advanced than Wall-E. She can fly and has her own very destructive laser gun.

Wall-E is directed by Andrew Stanton who won an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature for his movie Finding Nemo. Andrew Stanton thought of the idea for the Wall-E movie before Toy Story was made.

Ben Burtt designed most of the voices, which are mostly electronic sounds. To make the sounds he took mechanical sounds and combined them to resemble dialogue. Burtt is known for his work on the Star Wars movies.

Wall-E had to wait a while from the original concept to arriving on the screen. After Andrew Stanton had completed Finding Nemo he felt that the technology was ready to create the effects that he needed for the movie. His feeling was that if they could create the effect of the sea, the the air was the next step.

Folklore has it that every Pixar movie has a hidden A113, representing the classroom number of the animation class early Pixarites attended. In Wall-E, A113 is a key element of the movie plot (you will first see it in the Captain’s quarters).

The movie has something for everyone. The animation is perfect, and while there is little dialog throughout the movie, it is still engaging in a way which demonstrates that communication is often independent of words. This is a big movie which will keep you engaged for 90 minutes. See it on the big screen!
